Dried Cranberry

Dense, moist, and delicious, this bread is great as a quick snack or with a bit of whipped honey butter for afternoon tea.

The sweet-tart filling and the flaky crust add up to one terrific pie.

A drizzle of white chocolate makes these Italian cookies holiday ready. For what it's worth, it's equally good on a classic almond biscotti, too.

Store-bought rotisserie chicken and frozen potatoes make quick and easy work of this dinner, which tastes like Thanksgiving leftovers in the best way possible.

This dressing is best cooked in a dish of its own, which also allows the top layer of bread to brown to an appealing crisp.

Colorful bits of cranberries, walnuts, and pistachios make these simple cookies sparkle for the holidays.

In this recipe, applesauce is used instead of butter to cut back on the fat.

This is equally good served warm or cold. If you prefer it cold, begin preparing the dessert well ahead so that it has time to chill.

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Always cool the stuffing completely before filling the turkey.
